The EU

Why was this powerfull union formed? What ideas and powers made it come true?

The CIA?
The Jews?

>inb4 this thread devolves into brexit refugee crisis bullshit

As to why was it formed ?
Simple trade. The EU was based upon an older coal trading agreement

Post WWII/Cold War era solution to geopolitics.
>dude blocs n shit
They don't seem to be working very well anymore, though.

>france and germany are disgusted by the eternal anglo after two devastating world war.

By what side

it was to stop german-french wars
frenchies thought theyll be able to contain them by economics but it overgrown and now the germans are in charge for the most of it

>still make the mistake to let the eternal anglo in even when de gaule warned against it multiple times

What was the biggest force of Interest Country or group that drove The EU in the beginning?

Germany gave up on dominating Europe by military means so they turned to economic means instead.

any proof that germany started the EU?

to stop shooting eachother over tiny bits of land and money

France and Germany wanted to trade more. Then Britain jumped in too because they wanted to ruin everything. So i guess jews and anglos.

The france made the EU to cripple Germany?

No France and Germany wanted to stop fighting and start trading instead. For them the deal was pretty logical. Then Britain comes along too because they just cant have France and Germany going all peaceful with each other.

Why is it called the European union then if it was just between them?

because it developed into that over time

>2621567
What was the original name?

and flag

The EU developed from the European Coal And Steel Union.

the part that just involved France and Germany was the Schuman Declaration, which lead to the European Coal and Steel Union, where Italy and the Low Countries were also included.

It was formed as just an economic union like said but because of German political maneuvering, it's turned into the 4th Reich/2nd USSR which has all of Europe in its grasp and seeks to destroy western civilization as Germans often do.

French and german decide fuck it let have peace.
Then Based french Gaule die and they let the british in, then the british force eastern europe in and destroy based protectionisme.
TL;DR Fuck the english scum.

>join the eu with a sole purpose of destroying it
>leave it once you've done so

Perfidious/10

>it's turned into the 4th Reich/2nd USSR
Such a claim makes literally no sense, if you actually look into the legal framework of the EU.

The other member states, even the small member states, carry a lot of weight in all 4 legislature procedures, especially in the ones that require a consensus to pass laws. Heck, a Luxembourger is head of the Commission, a Pole is head of the Council, an Italian is head of the parliament and another is head of the central bank.

I know it sounds catchy to brainlets and for use in political activism, but let's stick to the truth, please.

but Germany has a strong economy so they're literally hitler

Do Germany hold the most power in the union?

By far.

Has the EU been good for trade however? in sense that European nations get more money

They are at the head of coalition of country and are the only one having some kind of coherent policy. So everyone let them do their stuff.

it has, it has also been incredibly beneficial to europe by increasing economic participation in eastern europe.

all of europe is particularly inter-reliant with one another as part of a greater market region, it makes sense to increase industry and wealth in less-affluent regions so as to increase the overall market size. in this sense, it has been incredibly successful for european trade.

>Why was this powerfull union formed?
Scared french people teaming up with others to contain germany.
It had mxied success.

>english propaganda

terrible, its not the 20th century winston anymore
all i see is german factories giving jobs, anglos do what?
shit up the streets at night

Sweden, Belgium and Poland can't produce their own olives in their cold and dark climate, so they import them.

You are a Greek that wants to sell his olive oil in a Swedish, Belgian and Polish supermarkets.

Before the EU:
>harvest, package, send to port; waste hours in Greek customs, send to Netherlands
>waste hours in Netherlands customs, pay Netherland customs, send per truck to Belgium
>waste hours in Belgian customs, pay Belgian customs - OH SHIT, they have their special snowflake standards for bottle sizes and hygiene - you have to rebottle the oil or send it back
>send per truck towards Sweden, waste hours in Danish customs, pay Danish customs, waste hours in Swedish customs, OH SHIT, they have their own special snowflake standards for how much the bottles are allowed to weight
>send per truck towards Poland, waste hours in German customs, pay German customs, waste hours in Polish customs, customs officer is a dick, pay Polish customs - this time you knew about their special snowflake standards for solid particles left in the bottle, because you hired a team of Polish lawyers, as you had to for all the other countries you want to export to

After the EU:
>harvest, package, send to port, they check for EU standards; send to Netherlands, no customs anymore
>send per truck to Belgium
>send per truck to Sweden, through Denmark
>send per truck to Poland, through Germany; you only had to hire one team of lawyers for the whole EU, instead of one team of lawyers for each of the 28 member states

It changed over time, germany has the most "power" whenever france is too busy with itself to do much with the EU and lets germany run it all.
Britains inclusion kinda imbalanced things in germanies favour, ironically, because they have very similar economical policies and teamed up with eachother a lot more often than britain did with france.

If france or the other Eu countries like italy or the Benelux would get their shit together more, germany wouldn't have so much influence.
Woukld be better for everyone desu

hmmm, I want to give all political power to this economic entity

Also, I forgot about having to exchange money all the time. God, was exchanging annoying as a private person, and expensive as a firm that had to save reserves in all kinds of currencies, before the Euro.

All I see are Germans destroying Ukraine, importing rapists and disregarding other European countries. It's only a matter of time until other countries follow Britain and rightfully destroy Germany for a third time.

The entity itself doesn't have any political power, thats actually kind of the main problem.
All the power is from the consensus of 28 (now 27) egocentric assholes who have a history of pulling out eachothers guts through the nose for centuries and are paranoid to the point of delusion about eachother all the time.
